There are many of people out there that look at trends and utilize them in their daily handicapping, so I thought I would post a few trends in NHL for this year and over the past few months. I have seen multiple post from forum members asking if there is more games that go OVER the total or UNDER the total and questions on whether they should play the home team and favorites. I hope these numbers help.
